Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 2304: Chapter 2303: Becoming the Sword, Shattering the Heavenly Emperor

Back then, Su Han once asked Xin Leng why, with such a freakish aptitude for the Sword Dao, his Cultivation Base was almost at a standstill.

Xin Leng replied to Su Han, saying that if he wanted to break through, he definitely would, but it simply wasn’t the right time yet.

Until today, Xin Leng has been focusing on cultivation inside the Xumi Ring of the Holy Son, for a total time exceeding twenty thousand years.

Even before Su Han refined the Immortal Artifact, he had gone to see Xin Leng, but Xin Leng’s Cultivation Base was only at the Second Grade Fusion Realm.

But now...

Only six hundred years have passed!

...

”Boom!!!”

Countless Phoenix Sect Disciples came from afar, surrounding the area where Xin Leng was, watching expectantly.

But the incredible booming sounds continued to echo, and a raging aura often spread out from Xin Leng!

He stood there, holding a sword in his right hand, with a sharp sheen flashing across the longsword.

With an erect posture, standing between heaven and earth, he made many female Disciples of the Phoenix Sect’s hearts flutter.

The aura of the Fusion Realm had long dissipated, and now what was being displayed was the Dao Sovereign Realm Peak!

People like Xuanyuan Qiong simply couldn’t believe what they were seeing.

Before Xin Leng’s breakthrough, they naturally knew Xin Leng’s Cultivation Base.

Second Grade Fusion Realm!

Yet it was this Second Grade Fusion Realm, in this breakthrough, that seemed boundless, astonishing heaven and earth!

Xuanyuan Qiong witnessed with his own eyes how Xin Leng, in such a short period, advanced from the Second Grade Fusion Realm to the Dao Sovereign Realm Peak.

At this moment, he is witnessing Xin Leng stepping from Dao Sovereign to reach the Heavenly Emperor!

”Swoosh!”

At a certain moment, the longsword flashed, unleashing an immense light.

From within the sword body, a sharp screech was emitted, as if the Sword Soul was screaming, roaring.

Xin Leng swung his sword towards the sky, then... slashed downward!

At a glance, this slash seemed like a mere ordinary stroke.

There was no sword light transformation, nor an earth-shattering grand scene.

But this seemingly ordinary slash, upon being swung, caused Xin Leng’s entire body to vanish instantly!

No, he didn’t vanish!

Everyone was fixating their gaze intently.

They saw that at the moment the sword swung down, Xin Leng’s body directly merged into the sword body...

Becoming one with the sword!!!

”Sigh...”

Lian Yuze sighed softly from nearby: ”This is the Sword Dao that Xin Leng has always been cultivating. The Sect Master personally advised him not to take this path, yet he wouldn’t listen.”

Becoming one with the sword, existing with the sword, perishing with the sword!

Su Han did not wish for Xin Leng to bind his life to his longsword.

But for Xin Leng, how could he change his Sword Dao at will?

He chose this path and believed it was right, so he wanted to keep going.

And Su Han, too, did not deem this path mistaken, just that this kind of Sword Dao is too perilous.

The facts have proven that this path is not wrong.

Xin Leng achieved the outcome he desired and thoroughly erupted the Cultivation Base suppressed for countless years at this moment.

”Buzz~”

Heaven and earth buzzed completely at this moment!

There was an intangible ripple spreading outward, as if forming substance, transforming into countless sword bodies, sweeping in every direction.

The aura of the Heavenly Emperor Realm erupted completely at this moment from that sword body!!!

”Swoosh!”

Above the void, the longsword dispersed, splitting in two.

Xin Leng’s form emerged once more.

”We greet the Emperor!”

At this moment, numerous voices echoed.

Apart from people like Xuanyuan Qiong, even super powerhouses like Shen Li, at the Dao Sovereign Realm Peak, slightly bent, clasped their fists and respectfully spoke.

The Might of the Heavenly Emperor is inviolable!

Though many hold titles higher than Xin Leng in the Phoenix Sect,

At this moment, they disregard titles, focusing only on Cultivation Base!

The Heavenly Emperor Realm, transcending all, is the zenith of the Lower-Class Star Region!

They can obliterate a planet with a mere wave of their hands.

They can shatter a land with a casual snort!

”Huff...”

Amidst the multitude of respectful voices, Xin Leng exhaled a long breath of turbid air.

”I never imagined, that one day, I could transform into the Heavenly Emperor Realm.”

Under the eyes of countless people, Xin Leng turned towards the valley where Su Han was, plunged his longsword, and knelt on one knee!

”Everything was bestowed by the Sect Master; Xin Leng kneels here in gratitude!”

”Alright.”

Xuanyuan Qiong and others came over, helping him up with a smile, ”You’re the Heavenly Emperor, how can you kneel to others so easily? Moreover, the Sect Master always advocated that cultivators defy the heavens, bow only to parents, not to heaven and earth; if the Sect Master sees this, he’ll surely scold you.”

”I truly am grateful to the Sect Master...” Xin Leng scratched the back of his head.

It was only then that he realized, all around, countless people were bowing to him.

”Everyone need not do this, please rise quickly.”

Xin Leng blushed, promptly said, ”We are all part of the Phoenix Sect, there’s no need for this.”

”You’re at the Heavenly Emperor Realm, you should accept such courtesy.”

Ling Xiao patted Xin Leng’s shoulder, said, ”Don’t overthink it; as long as you’re devoted wholeheartedly to the Phoenix Sect, even if the Sect Master sacrifices much for you, he’s willing.”

”Mm!” Xin Leng nodded heavily.

Why is the Phoenix Sect so united today?

Why has Su Han become the soul and faith in everyone’s heart?

Besides being kind to every disciple of the Phoenix Sect, the way Ling Xiao frequently speaks of Su Han is also a major reason.

Calling it ’brainwashing’ is not an exaggeration.

However, even if it is brainwashing, Su Han really has given too much for them.

Otherwise, why would people like Ling Xiao be so willing to help Su Han, to persuade the other members of the Phoenix Sect?

They are cultivators, with firm minds and strong wills; brainwashing isn’t easily done.

They see clearly what is right and wrong in their hearts, more than anyone else.

...

The Phoenix Sect gains another Heavenly Emperor Realm!

The Top Ten Divine Sons live up to their fame!

As long as given time, with their aptitude, there’s over an eighty percent chance of advancing to the Heavenly Emperor!

While Su Han was in secluded cultivation, Lian Yuze took charge, throwing a grand banquet, lasting a day and a night, celebrating for Xin Leng.

Previously, when Xuanyuan Qiong and others reached the Heavenly Emperor Realm, they also received the same treatment.

It wasn’t to win over Xin Leng, but because they truly felt happy for Xin Leng, and even more so for the Phoenix Sect!

The enhancement a Heavenly Emperor Realm can bring to the Phoenix Sect is undoubtedly immense.

Including Xin Leng, the Phoenix Sect already possesses ten Heavenly Emperor Realms!

Now, they’re just waiting for Su Han to emerge from seclusion, to lead the Phoenix Sect back into the light!
